Nicely put, although as far as burning houses down I think Portsmouth and Southampton have a pretty equal legacy courtesy of the Luftwaffe

Wikipedia's entry for 'Mass Hysteria' now refers to something called 'Conversion disorder', which seems to be the current term for this kind of behaviour where a more or less isolated group of people get themselves worked up: "Conversion disorder is where patients suffer apparently neurological symptoms, such as numbness, blindness, paralysis, or fits, but without a neurological cause. It is thought that these problems arise in response to difficulties in the patient's life, and conversion is considered a psychiatric disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fourth edition (DSM-IV).[1]" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_disorder I'm just making the point that Portsea Island is a small and isolated community where the truth seems to be what they want it to be

That will be the Parkes Institute & its archive, I think http://www.southampton.ac.uk/parkes/

Its been a long time coming but I can hear the fat lady gargling and tuning up

Maybe, but you're forgetting that those were 50 of the bestest which more than makes up for their modest numbers

Lets wait & see. A bit like the crowd of ghouls gathering at the scene of an RTA - policeman waving his hands repeating 'nothing to see here, move along' - fat chance

Well quite - the fault could not possibly be with, for example, his leadership or preparations

I can see how that will attract a field of outstanding and well-qualified candidates keen to work for nothing.

Maybe, but its still hilarious.

Massive club. Massive LOLs

Chat disabled No more LOLs

Those stay-at-home reject senior players must be ROFL'ing tonight

I have had *so* much fun on the RockStream video chat tonight

The leopard doesn't change its shorts, as Terry Pratchett would say. They have shown that not only have they not changed their ways, they don't want to change their ways because they're special. And that is why they should be put out of their misery ASAP

And about time too

Seconded. Good post

People pay good money to watch films depicting chains of events like these. And we're getting it all for free right now as it happens, I'm loving it!

Classy
